Overview

The Lipisha API has been created to easily allow developers to integrate with our payments system.

The Lipisha API has a number of functions which allow the user to interact with the system easily using code (programmatically) rather than having to carry out the same on the Lipisha Online Platform or the Lipisha USSD Service.

The Lipisha API enables you to carry out the following activities.

Confirming whether a transaction exists

Acknowledging a transaction

Querying for transactions

Querying for customers

Checking current volume

Checking available float

Sending mobile money

Sending an SMS

Charge a credit or debit card

Creating roles

Creating users

Creating a new channel

Requesting a withdrawal

Authorizing a withdrawal

This documentation is intended to guide third party application developers interact with the Lipisha Payments platform in an easy way using HTTP Post and JSON.

The response from the Lipisha API will be a JSON object which the client application can process.

The current version of the Lipisha API is v1.3.0.
